Glamorganshire / Tyfica Road, Pontypridd
« on: Tuesday 19 April 16 19:38 BST (UK) »
A friend has asked me if i can find out about the house that he lives in at 3 Tyfica Road, Pontypridd.
I have an Ancestry account but cannot seem to find out how to search the census records by address only. I have been able to find the 1911 record - the property was unoccupied bur I am drawing a blank on the others.
Any ideas?

Thank you again for your help and insight.
I have found the book on Amazon and will get a copy not just for my grandfather's history but also my father's who was in the service during WW2.
I will close this topic for now.

Many thanks for the information.
I have a copy of the medals card and also have his CR1 which does list him as 5' 11 1/2" tall and with the tattoos that you detail.
Is this CR1 the same as the CR10 that you mention?
Regards + Diolch!

Yes, it's Charles Frederick Nutman born 1878.
Whilst writing can you also answer another query. I have found him arriving in London from Bombay aboard a ship called the Macedonia on 22 June 1929.
He is listed as a passenger but in the section for what class he travelled they have typed D.B.S. - what does that mean?
Thanks in anticipation.

I have a copy of my grandfathers CR10 and wondered if it is possible to date when it was issued from his identity number 407045.
I would like to do this as it will help date the photograph and tell me his age at the time it was taken.
Alongside the photo there are two ships numbers listed with a date against each which I presume are the dates he joined these ships - 28th March 1919 and 15th August 1921.
Thank you for reading this especially if you can help.

Thank you for your expertise.
Yes, two different men.
I have both of the merchant documents listed although I did think that they were part of one and the same from his seaman's pouch. They show the two different Dis A numbers shown.
The New Wortham is just a mistranscription of Newcastle.
Thank you again.

World War One / Medal Record Cards and Merchantile marine medals
« on: Thursday 09 July 15 19:35 BST (UK) »
My grandfather, Charles Frederick Nutman (born 1878) attested to the Militia (Northumberland RGA) in 1906.
I have downloaded a copy of his attestation.
I have now found a medal record card for Charles Nutman (no Frederick mentioned) with the following information:-
Corps RFA - Rank Driver ? - Regimental no. 87545
Corps RGA - Rank blank - Regimental no. 227672
Medals - Victory and British - Roll RGA/223B - Page 13371
I am trying to check if this is the same man as my grandfather later served in the Merchant Navy and was awarded the usual merchantile medals and ribbons in 1919
can anybody help or point me in the right direction please?
